Anniversary Visit To Frederick Meijer Gardens
Visited Frederick Meijer Gardens on our anniversary weekend. Enjoyed the butterflies and spent time enjoying the place where our marriage started 10 years ago, under the arbor.
Putting Wood On The Fire
Put more wood into the fire by accompanying your partner to his/her favourite place. – Day 1, Refresh Your Marriage In 31 Days I can definitely see that the busyness of life makes it more challenging to keep the “wood fires burning” of marriage. Marriage takes work and especially intentional action to keep plain selfishness at bay. If we would keep our focus on serving in our marriage then love would be more readily felt. I need to plan to be intentional about this each day.
When Life Get’s Busy, When Life Get’s Complicated

My best friend was a guy that I have served with in ministry for years and was the best man in my wedding. However if there is anyone in my life that should…
Your Wife Should Not Be Outserving You
This is not about having a competition with your wife on serving, it’s about taking a hard look at yourself as a husband and asking yourself what kind of leader are you. We live in a world where leadership, and men, are expected to be authoritative and followed because of their authority. Jesus’ picture of a leader is a stark contrast to the world’s idea. And God’s design and calling for a husband is a daily challenge that I doubt many of us even come close to living up to.
